The resistance group stated that it targeted an Israeli Merkava tank with a guided missile and confirmed a direct hit.

Hezbollah added that its fighters destroyed one Merkava tank in the town of Qantara, raising the total number of destroyed Israeli tanks to six in recent operations.

In a related development, Hezbollah reported striking three Merkava tanks with guided missiles in the Al-Muhayssabat hill area of the town of Al-Taybeh, inflicting casualties on the Zionist enemy.

Separately, the resistance movement said it targeted a second Merkava tank in the town of Debl in southern Lebanon with a guided missile, causing further losses to the Israeli forces.

Earlier on Thursday, warning sirens sounded across the greater Tel Aviv area in central Israel after rockets were launched from Lebanon.

Hezbollah declared that it targeted Israeli military sites in Tel Aviv with precision missiles.

The group said the strikes hit the Kirya complex, which houses Israel’s Defense Ministry, as well as the Dolphin barracks belonging to the Military Intelligence Directorate in central Israel.

Israel has intensified its aggression against Lebanon with relentless airstrikes and a ground offensive in southern Lebanon since a cross-border operation by Hezbollah on March 2.

Lebanese authorities report that at least 1,094 people have been killed and 3,119 injured in these Israeli attacks.
